I am looking for some insight into how academic libraries have been
equitably allocating money for electronic resources among subject and
disciplinary areas. My own campus maintains strong programs in sciences,
social sciences and humanities disciplines. Our shopping list of desired
electronic products is getting longer and longer, while our budget
remains
static. It is essential that our process for choosing what to buy for
whom
be perceived as fair and rational.
I've just spent a couple of hours digging through the professional
literature without finding exactly what I need on this. I hope someone
on
the list will be able to help.
Happy holidays to everyone.
